YOUR WORSHIP SONGWRITER TYPE IS…
STORYTELLER
• Testimony-rich • Relatable • Honest
Storytellers weave God’s truth through real-life experiences.
Your strength lies in connection!
You help others see Jesus in the ordinary by writing songs that speak straight to the heart
You are empathetic, expressive, and authentic, often writing from moments of both joy and brokenness
People resonate deeply with your lyrics because they sound like real life
In co-writing, you bring warmth and vulnerability to the table, helping others unlock deeper meaning behind their songs
WHAT DEFINES YOUR SONGWRITING TYPE
WHERE YOU
MAY STRUGGLE
• Letting go of verses that feel personal, even if they don’t fit the song’s flow
• Focusing too much on emotion or detail that you lose the main theme
• Getting stuck editing and perfecting instead of finishing songs
• Balancing vulnerability with clear, singable lyrics for others

HEAR FROM YOUR VOCAL MENTOR
Delphne Tan
Songwriting Mentor
There was a time when sitting down to write a song felt terrifying for me. I’d hear the whispers of what if i’m not good enough? Maybe you’ve felt that too. But over the years, the Lord has been teaching me that songwriting isn’t about proving something. It’s about partnering with Him to express His heart through ours.
That’s what our Awaken Generation Global Songwriting Stream is all about. We’ll journey together to let go of fear, and embrace our call as a songwriter. In this space, you’ll learn to honour your voice as a songwriter after God’s heart. You’ll discover what it means to write from intimacy, and find freedom in the process.
God has placed a sound inside of you that no one else can release. My prayer is that through growing in community & being intentionally mentored in the craft of songwriting, you’ll grow in courage to write songs that reveal God in your local context.
